Focused Ultrasound Surgery of the Brain [PDF]
Transcranial magnetic resonance imaging guided focused ultrasound surgery (tcMRIgFUS) has recently taken root as a novel, noninvasive alternative to traditional neurosurgery. The ability to treat a variety of neurological diseases by precisely focusing ultrasound energy to a desired target deep inside the brain while leaving collateral structures ...

Rendering volumetric haptic shapes in mid-air using ultrasound:Proceedings of ACM SIGGRAPH Asia 2014 [PDF]
We present a method for creating three-dimensional haptic shapes in mid-air using focused ultrasound. This approach applies the principles of acoustic radiation force, whereby the non-linear effects of sound produce forces on the skin which are strong ...
